FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for clay courts?
These Barricade 13 trainers are primarily designed for hard courts. While they can be worn on clay, the outsole pattern may not provide optimal grip, and clay dust can easily accumulate in the tread.
How do I determine my correct size?
The product description states they fit true to size, so it is recommended to order your usual UK shoe size. If you are between sizes or have wider feet, consider trying them on in person or checking reviews for fit specifics.
What is the purpose of the Adituff reinforcement?
The Adituff reinforcement is a material placed on the toe area of the shoe to provide extra durability and protection against abrasion, which is common for players who drag their toes during play.
How long does the cushioning typically last?
The dual-density Repetitor midsole is designed for durability. However, cushioning performance can gradually decrease with extensive use. Regular play may require replacement of shoes after 6-12 months depending on frequency and intensity of use.
What does the Brain Dead collaboration add?
The Brain Dead collaboration adds distinctive co-branding and unique aesthetic details, such as the camouflage pattern, to the standard Barricade 13 performance features.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the materials, adhesives, and structural integrity of the shoe. Hand wash using a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary, and air dry.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight in the toe box.
Ensure laces are not over-tightened. Consider wearing thinner socks or allow for a break-in period, as the materials may stretch slightly with use.
Slipping inside the shoe.
Adjust the lacing system, focusing on securing the midfoot and heel. Ensure the Geofit collar is snug. Clean the insoles if they are dirty or worn.
Reduced traction on court.
Clean the Adiwear outsole using a damp cloth to remove accumulated dust or debris. Check for excessive wear on the outsole patterns.
Discomfort during play.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Wear with appropriate athletic socks. Allow for a standard break-in period of a few playing sessions.
